Day 7
Well once again Allison slept until about midnight and then was up the rest of the night.  At one point she had rolled around and got her feeding tube line wrapped around her neck :) - and I imagine in an effort to get it off pulled it out, so we had to go have it put back in - poor kid :(  But they have disconnected the IV line so the feeding tube is the only one for now.  The IV is still in - just not connected to anything.
Her blood pressures have been pretty consistently around the 120/80 mark that we have been shooting for.  And she looks like she is beginning to feel better.  Sydney, Aunt Rebekah, and Grandma Kate visited last night, which Allison really liked.  She was at the end of the day and getting tired but I think she liked to see her sister - who of course brought her some crafts :) A card and a doll she had made out of paper.
Lindsey is back on as her nurse - who is about the only one we have seen more than once - and thankfully has been one of the best ones - always very gentle with Ali and concerned about keeping her comfortable..  Ali is back asleep now - which has been her pattern.  Up from midnight to about 8:00am and then gets in a nice nap till about 10:00am.
Lets hope her blood pressure gets even a little better today with out any high swings and we can build on some of the improvements from yesterday.  I am hoping she will gain some interest in food today so we can get her off the feeding tube, then she won't have anything else tying her down and maybe we can get her to the kids play room... maybe :)
